Chef's Notes
Do not let this sit in the dressing for too long before serving unless you enjoy a limp, sad vegetable! Crispness is the crown jewel of this dish.
Pro Tip
Salt draws out water, so if you plan on holding this for later, dress it right at the absolute last second to maintain maximum crunch.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Do not commit the cardinal sin of drowning your delicate cucumber rounds in un-emulsified vinaigrette like a clumsy squire, or worse, slicing them so thick they taste like garden hoses; shake that jar until your arm aches and slice them thin, or face the watery, overdressed wrath of my royal displeasure!
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the cucumber join the royal court? Because he was a 'cool' cucumber under pressure, unlike the nervous carrots!
The Culinary Science
Cucumbers are over 95 percent water, which is why a properly emulsified oil and vinegar coat clings to them instead of sliding right off into a watery puddle at the bottom of the bowl.
